He called the police again.
And until this house is sold and gone --- and who knows how long that will be --- he will continue to do it.
To make a long story short for those of you who do not know the backstory: I'm suing Bro because I can no longer own the home with him. A buyout isn't an optiona and it isn't because of the circumstances; he's racked up omnetary damanges and a judge will inevitably rule that the house be sold.
I am in a no win situation; I decided that the house be sold and I am going to re-sue Bro again for the monetary damages that he's rung up over the last several years. This is where a judge gets involved and reviews the data and then decides the house be sold. (It is likely I also will not see the full amount of damages; he "owes" me a pretty sizable chunk of change.
I met with atty yesterday and told him I wanted the house to be sold. Bro's atty will be getting a letter that informs bros atty the house is being sold. I said, to atty is it okay if I tell bro first.
He said yes.
At about 4pm, I knocked on Bro's door. He was there alone. He tells me to come in.
I said, "Bro, bad news: this house is going to be put upf for sale. It's inevitable." I added, "could I please have the key to your apartment and the key to the vestibule lock?"
(his live in gf changed the locks last fall and did not have my permission to do so. That's anoher whole story; the 2 of them never gave me a copy of the keys. Bro and I have always had the key to each other's respective premises --- you never know if you smell smoke downstairs or where something may warrant you going in there if he/I is not home)
Bro said "NOI! This house isn't going to be sold; I will not allow it. I am going to keep LIVING here! Get out of MY house!"
He added, "you cannot have the keys; I don't have to give you anything!"
And then he did it again....I told Atty yesterday that he probably would; I put it on record during our meeting when I told him I decided to sell the house --- called the cops.
"II am going to call the cops and get an RO out on you. You came at me will balled up fists."
This is what he said to me in March, too...when he called the cops.
I said "Sure, whatever you want. Go ahead" and I got out of there.
The whole exhcange took perhaps 30 secords, give or take 10.
I called my atty and left a message that Bro called the cops. I could sort of hear Bro talking to the dispatcher.
He told the cops that I ordered him offf the premises and demanded I give him his keys! Nice way to make another false statement to the cops yet again.
When i got done leaving the message, I went outside.
Bro was bragging, "911 baby! The cops are coming and I am going to have you thrown out of here and off the premises."
The cops came. 2 cars. They gotr my end of the story got his and then they left. Bro left also --- maybe to file a report? FIle the RO? Who knows.
When the cops left, Bro made 2 phone calls: one to live in GF --- where he bragged again he called the cops -- and to this other girl he is seeing (yes, this is how comical it is) and bragged to her, too, that he called the cops, I caused trouble again, etc.
Atty called me maybe an hour ago and wanted to know what the outcome was.
This is Bro's only ammunition --- I tell him whatever and up goes the cell phone and he dials 911. This bullshit is going to go on until the house is sold and gone --- it is not officially on the sales block yet -- it probably won't be until after the first of the year --- he is going to call at his own whim whenever I mention something invoving the court case.
And YES I told Bro in person this house will be sold. Who knows wht hed have done when his atty informed Bro that the house will be up for sale? he could have had an even worse reaction than the one he had today; who knows? His atty will be receiving the other summons about me suing for damages. Will be going by mail to his offfice.
I did not tell him he is being re-sued. Let him find that out on his own.
You would think he'd be smart about this -- it is going to take time to find another place to live plus this house needs to have the basement cleaned out and certain repairs made! I mean, be smart and shut up and get a jump start on it! Time is to be used wisely. It's inevitable the house will be sold -- a judge is going to review the case and damanges and the house will be ordered sold.
And I will not see all of the damages. I will probably get only half, despite the fact Bro has not produced one shred of evidence in his favor. I have 3 pounds worth of checking information that shows what I paid into this house. He paid nothing.
ANd he also lied, again, about paying the third quarter taxes: he paid nothing; a delinquent tax notice arrived via mail 3 days ago. I have it and gave a copy to atty.
What a mess. And he is still insisting he paid it. No he didn't.
What a mess indeed.

Re: He called the police again.
I also didn't want to chase after bro and go "didja get the letter?" No way would he sanely approach me after the atty told him.
Even if I let him find out by letter it's still going to have the same outcome with him. I was trying to choose the lesser of two evils.
